Hi

We need the exact binary copy of _tmeta  LV  - thus just use

dd if=/dev/qubes_dom0/pool00_tmeta  /tmp/tmeta_copy  bs=512K
bzip2 /tmp/tmeta_copy

With this data - also provide full lvm2 metadata for this VG
(should be as a file in  /etc/lvm/backup  - or you could run
just vgcfgbackup)

thin_dump is already 'processed' result - so not usable for futher investigation.

(Although it might interesting idea to add some 'option' to actually provide 
the above 'binary backup' is  built-in feature of this tool for bug reporting...)


Regards

Zdenek
